Veri nice global search best working

best app

Only works if swipe down gesture is enabled doesn't work in shelf or app drawer.

it is a great app for search for app to download this app to search/find good

More and more ads

Hello dear developers. Can you please remove/add an option to remove the text Find & Ask from my home screen. it looks really bad from aesthetic perspective.I know there is a search and I DON'T need this text hanging on the every screen 🙏🙏🙏

I tried to update this app but doesn't work after downloading it doesn't install the updates and is OUTDATED still

The global search functionality would be improved if it could retrieve suggestions from the Play Store or provide direct answers to queries instead of redirecting users to Google search results. or search and fetch SMS

The app is all in Chinese i couldn't switch that to English (on reno 14)

I wish my realme 10 pro was a stock Android where every setting is logically placed and there is no need to find settings all over the place. Thank you for your your reply but the best way to optimise it is to leave stock android as it is! 2026 UPDATE: it has improved through the years

good little slow update

always having problem during update as it is not getting updated from Play Store.

Very good app.. GLOBAL SEARCH is best...

stop showing ads i want to clean ui opp not working to stop showing ads

good but needs some more features and fast

It's useless like pubic hair, it's of no use but you can't uninstall it either.

update is unsuccessful but everything is running well

Won't allow update on a new device with a hotspot from the old device. (18th May 2024). Will it update on mobile data (05th Oct 2026)

It doesn't update on older Realme devices!

There are too many different global search places on OnePlus 15, for example, in the app drawer and main screen as a search button, and each of them works differently. For example, I can search for a contact from the home screen, but I can't from the app drawer. I've tried to turn off global search, yet the home screen one kept working. The app is just full of bugs and it raised privacy concerns for me.

good Side this side server always good i,m so happy to uss this side and thnkyou all side worker team

I haven't used this app. so I don't know how this functions. maybe it is helpful. I will use it in the future. I'll keep you updated.

it doesn't work on old versions of android. i have been trying to update it for more than a year now on my android 11 but it keeps showing error while installing the update.

Frustrating navigation. The swipe-down gesture to search conflicts with my phone's system shortcuts. Please add a simple tap-to-search option at the bottom of the screen.

No longer have choice about updating this app. I therefore describe it as inapproriate. I myself prefer to decide if I update an app or not. Users should have the choice about updating or uninstalling an app. It's once again updating itself even auto update turned off. 28th August.

honestly the best web app ive ever seen it also had games like planet eating evolution or something like that yeah

disable adds I cant disable opera adds that appear in search

kids play but too much ads

Why does this app keep reappearing and asking for updates even after being uninstalled multiple times? I do not need or use this Global Search app, and users should have the freedom to permanently disable or remove unwanted pre-installed applications from their mobiles (Realme 8S 5G) It is also concerning when an app continues pushing updates despite repeated uninstall attempts. Transparency, user privacy, user choice should be respected. And honestly the flood of suspicious five-star reviews?👇

Global Search is a fast and convenient app that makes it easy to find apps, files, contacts, and other content on my phone. The interface is clean, and the search results are quick and accurate. I hope future updates bring even faster performance and more customization options. Overall, it's a very useful feature. Great job!

there needs to be some way of pinning apps rather than just relying on suggested apps. if I want to use google or another search engine like duckduckgo there's no way to choose it if they have dropped off the suggested apps. Give us the option of both suggested apps and pinned apps.

The gradient background doesn't adapt to live wallpapers other than stock wallpapers. even after updates and restarting, the issue persists. The bg will be blue only in case any other live wallpaper has been applied. It adapts to static wallpapers though. please fix this. This is still not fixed as of 30th Jul

Reliable and most accurate information within a second.

Animations are broken, icons glitch and teleport as they change locations when you exit an app and go directly back to the search

always say update...but every time I updated the app.. doesn't work or could not updated the app

Great app overall. The interface is clean and user-friendly. I only wish it loaded a bit faster on older devices, but it's still worth downloading.

Always failed to last update on old oppo CPH1931 finally got update on this version (16.12.0), thanks

While search is essential on any phone, this one offers no customizability. It regularly surfaces the same items that I never select. I'd love to exclude whole categories but no option available. Search is laggy, with items jumping around. other UI bugs exist. e.g. my previous search string remains so you have to delete it before a new search, even if it was ages ago. All known issues and yet ColorOS still forces the use of this search. Wouldn't choose but other launchers are unusable on ColorOS

Doesn't work. ...says that I'm able to search for an app, and if I don't have it installed, I can go straight to the App Store from Global Search. However, all it shows me is a Google button, which literally just launches Google, and then I have to type again. Kind of pointless. No idea whether it's to do with being in the UK and GDPR.

While the overall value this app provides is great but the search experience is really bad: too much delay in surfacing the right results, sometimes when I am about to click the suggestion suddenly the suggestion changes. The regex is incorrect - it prioritizes center word match on the top rather than left to right word matches. If these issues are resolved it would be a great value provider app with great UX too.

Do not listen to the bad reviews. This app is essential for any phone. Basically it allows you to quickly swipe , or tap , and you can search for anything on your phone. Although it's not perfect and the interface is very simple (It is supposed to be) .... the idea is to save you from swiping around and allowing you to quickly open your application.

This app have too much of bugs in it. if I open home screen and lock screen settings. It exit immediately... It steals all our data and too lag in phone After uninstall all updates for this app now my phone works smoothly... Don't use or update this app This app not worth for single Star also.

0 star if I can. System search should not be an ad surface! Global Search keeps injecting ads apps into suggested apps (center icons in both rows), based on apps I have installed. I already turned off Trending Apps and Banner Recommendations and it works, but since the 19 Jan 2026 update the settings do not stick. Ads come back repeatedly and I have to clear cache and data and reconfigure again repeatedly. Force stop does nothing. This looks intentional or OPPO refuses to fix it. Please fix it!

THIS SUCKS! I don't even use this feature! It's just a bloatware on my devices, if I am buying a good phone I need goo features and most importantly not ads in the built-in software. Which is the main issue, do you really have to include random ads in a feature like this? And most of the time it doesn't even show my apps, what a junk!

The Global Search app is not updating on my phone. I tried updating it through the Play Store, but the update keeps failing. I have checked my internet connection, restarted my phone, and cleared the Play Store cache, but the issue still persists. Please help me fix this problem as soon as possible. Phone model: Realme C15 Android version: Android 11

I just bought Oppo Find X9 a few days ago. I turn off some options like not showing app suggestions or banners. Whatever settings I made, it makes some applications like LinkedIn or YT Studio cannot be opened from the drop-down list (when you type keywords to search for them). The only way to fix this issue is that I must force clear Global Search app cache. but if I config for options, this issue will reappear. This is a flawed software in a good smartphone.

Useless and filled with ads. I have seen better search functions implemented in open source software with half the size, double the performance and a fraction of the budget. Off the top of my head I can tell you Kvaesitso launcher's search function is a million times better than this. If this app is baked into your phone, you can remove it by installing Shizuku and Canta, No root required. Your welcome!

I'm using a OnePlus 3, and the default search app is the Global Search app. While it works fine overall, there's one major issue - it doesn't support landscape mode. I mostly use my device in landscape, especially when it's docked like a tablet, but every time I try to search for an app, the screen automatically switches to portrait mode. This constant rotation is really frustrating and breaks the flow when multitasking or using the device in tablet mode. Please, developers, update the app

New update increased the efforts. Earlier if I typed a part of the name, the results would show up and after selecting the desired app, the partial text would be gone. With the new update, the next time I search for an app, the previous partial text is still there in the text box. So now I have to delete it to search again. What is the use of it storing history in the box?

Nice app, but it lacks in a lot of ways. Please add the function to open the first matching search in the list using the "Enter" key on the keyboard. Order searches by frequency. I would love to search my local music by it's information, and get smart suggestions from Google or other search engines, like text, videos, books, etc.

👎This app is suspicious I don't want to install it but I automatically installed and after so many times it can not update and show a message after update (send feedback or cancel). Further it has no icon shown on home screen or in hidden icons, Instead of this I want to uninstall it but there is no option to uninstall it. That's the Standard issue. that's why I dislike it very much 👎.

this is a great app so far. In my Realme C21(4GB & 64GB). It would be great if there is a shortcut icon and quick settings tile to trigger it from anywhere. Plus, this app takes too much time to open. I suggest, you let the users decide which contents they want to search for through each individual toggle( file & doc, contact, Apps & settings). It will get rid of extra loads on the app if the search result is tailored by users.

It is too good but I am getting some type of bug. Whenever I am updating this app it is not updating. Don't know why this happening. I think this problem is getting to some of the other users too. Last time it was saying like that when I am updating it. On that time I had fixed this problem but now also it is saying the same thing. Kindly fix this problem as soon as possible.

Mediocre app. The algorithm behind is flawless and works every time but the UX is terrible. A basic function such as tap enter to open first result is not available! The app also stays on the recent apps which is really infuriating. I really want to like this app on my new One Plus but these little improvements are required. For the moment, I prefere to use third party search apps.

Works to find apps and files, but doesn't show search suggestions. It lets you tap on 2-3 apps to search in them, but doesn't follow my default browser or search engine. It's pretty limited. I'm a little surprised that it doesn't even support Google Messages or Contacts, just Chinese versions that shouldn't be on my device. It also acts like a completely separate app, as though it was copied and pasted from somewhere else (and it was) and they didn't bother to make it work well for OnePlus.

This app not installing (update) in my device also there is no option coming to uninstall it. By default i think it comes with my phone so when I uninstall this app it is still in phone and asking for update and whenever i trying to update its giving me popup with error message "I can't download this app". In short now I am unable to download any new update 🤬😡😡🤬😡

App works fine, does what it's supposed to except now it says there's an update for the app here in the play store but when I try to update it, it says my phone is no longer compatible, and yet it's already on my phone and working? I can't uninstall it and reinstall it from my phone, but I did disable, clear cache and data and restart my phone before re-enabling it, accepting the terms and trying the update again, but still nothing, still not compatible with my OnePlus 12 with Oxygen15?

Slow, unnecessary, bloatware, and a wrapper app. The core oppo experience doesn't behave this way. Oppo is making apps that wraps as a system app but in REALITY it really is just an app that's cheap and targets you with ads. Wake up yall, it's no longer 2010 where everyone is downloading apps like you collect them. This and the App Market are garbage, unnecessary apps. Google Play Store exists, one with the most accurate app developers and publishers. This app is nothing but cheap and greed.

This app makes no sense. It opens up a new app inside your launcher so that way when you wanna quickly switch between the apps you're using, now you can't because "global search" is now an open app. That is literal garbage, like what is OP thinking? Nowhere ever has a search function behaved this way. Not to mention that global search has to be force closed like all the time bc if you don't, when you go to search again you'll be met with a blank screen. Total garbage, zero stars.

"I've attempted multiple times to install this app, but it refuses to install properly. Despite completing the download, the installation is unsuccessful. I am perplexed about whether the issue lies with the app or my device. Furthermore, the app seems to contradict its name, 'Global Search,' as it only displays recent apps instead of an effective search feature. I'm installing this app either due to it being a system app or to avoid cluttering my storage with subpar apps."

What A Needles Waste Of Time - A Hindrance ! 🤬 This ridiculous app appeared after a recent system update. I couldn't work out what possible use it could be - your phone has umpteen established search methods already. I checked the T&C list and was horrified at the length and complexity of it all - it was like the '6th Amendment.' This app cannot be disabled or uninstalled so I cleared its cache, denied permissions & hid its button from my screen. Untrustworthy, spying bloatware ! 🤬

Bloatware that no-one wants. If I want to search files, settings or contacts I just use the search bar in the respective apps. The blue background doesn't fit in with the rest of the UI of the colorOS system. And I would rather not use it so I don't have to agree with the user agreement/privacy policy.

So frequently I'm searching for an app and I'll start typing the name and it says 'No results found' when I 100% have the app on my phone and use it all the time. Sometimes it only happens after the last letter of the app is typed for example 'Zara', as soon as I type the last 'a' it appears as if the app does not exist. I have to manually scroll through to find it which is very frustrating especially in a hurry

Do not want another update that's going to make my phone work differently than how I set up my phone in the first place, nothing ever works better, or how I'd like it to work, but constantly worse by removing features I do like and shoving more ads and propaganda in my face. It's unfortunate that the only other real option is Apple. I wish Linux made operating systems for phones.

Garbage and how do I delete it? You only have to look at the reviews to see it is bloatware, contrary to the response to my rating it was not installed in my phone at time of purchase. Rubbish that needs to be deleted. Never on the phone when purchased so it must be spyware uploaded during a software update. It should be illegal to upload apps without the users permission.

I don't understand how this got on my phone. I never knowingly installed it. Suddenly I get a pop-up Windows saying that I need to approve the end-user agreement to continue using global search. I never used it in the first place. It really upsets me when software ends up on my phone that I didn't intentionally and knowingly install

It is pathetic search, Firstly when we search it loads and the result come or sometime it show results from playstore to download( while it was downloaded app only, I have to search for second time to get the desired result) Example - searching for Netflix so I typed "Net" found aha app and Netflix... What is wrong with you guys... If you guys cannot handle, better you give app search default of Google which works way better than this.

The search function is a bit... Meh, to say the least. Before Global Search came around, it used to be able to find apps that contain a certain phrase, even if that phrase isn't on the start of the app's name. Somehow this is the case now, I can't search the Reddit app by typing "dit", I had to type in "Red"... Although this wasn't the biggest issue, just felt like the old search was better on its own capabilities. Before, it gets the apps name even if I typed it wrong, but now it doesn't...

Really unnecessary application. Really hated that it installed itself automatically without any permission. Trick: if you want to disable this app but it's not showing in app management in settings, then update it to the latest version, it'll come up in app management, disable it from their and click on 3 dot menu to uninstall the update to free some space. Thank me later.

Useless bloatware. Nowhere near as the Google version. Developer can you include an option to unistail this junk program.

An app I don' t find in my device... wants update, creepy! ColrOS is playing deaf... also Google. People are saying We don't want the app, installed WITHOUT any consent from us!" Installed on backdoor, like perpetrator! I think I must find another device.

I used to love to use OnePlus phones till this update. There are lots of issues with this update. One of them is this global search. I need to delete previous searching word every time. This last update is not a stable update. I am thinking of buy another brand due to many issues.

Stop auto updating it and forcing me to update to global search. It's slow , it's annoying. ( Reno6 + 5G). Normal search was perfectly fine for its use- searching for local apps. I don't need app suggestions. I read your other comments on other user's similar complain. If you consider it high quality app, kindly rethink your QC standards and also note what we- your customers want and not what you think we need. We are calling it outright here. Make global search an option not mandate

I used search only for my installed apps for my phone, and it was working perfect. Now it's Google search and playmarket search included and it's so slow. And didn't erase previous search in text field. Please add possibility to off other searches and left only installed app search. And this embedded ads. It's disgusting. I bought my realme because there was no embedded ads. I am so disappointed

Existing search replaced by this pathetic thing lagging. Its job is to let user access apps faster and it does opposite of it. First time making me regret using their device. Won't got for any color os devices again.

Very slow to load, until you see your own typing. Maybe 10 seconds. But latest update removes the extreme slowness. So upgraded from 1 to 4 stars.

Hi oppo team This app update after go settings >Home screen & lock screen Click this option suddenly go to home screen automatically what this issue kindly fix this problem. 2times my phone fully reset after know this issue

This app does not having animation when I search app and click on app no animation was appear worst app take more time to load

Previous coloros update is very convenient when swipe down global search open automatically with keyboard and now 1st we need to swipe down then click on global search then we can search it's long process. Not useful at all.

Improvement over the previous version. At least I'm seeing results for installed apps first. Would be nice if the search would clear once you enter an app rather than having to manually clear the previous search

Adding this to the latest oneplus update has made app searching a pain. If I want to search the app store then I'll open the app store. Having to delete my last search before I can type a new search is also a pain. I just don't understand the point of this. The old search worked fine. Keep it simple, stupid.

There is delay when selecting search option to start typing Also can u replace suggested apps with recent/frequent apps as I don't use suggested ones

Enough with the bloatware OMG...realme used to be good before now changed my opinion how much ever i remove them they keep adding more and more now im planning to shift from Android to iPhone considering as a negative stars from me.

I use it mostly for searching apps in the app drawer and it does a terrible job performance-wise as it takes entire seconds to show results. It should also clear the search input after I interact with the results from the previous search cause so far every time I want to run a new search I have to manually delete the previous input.

Worst app of OnePlus... Why does this search app show ads?? This is ridiculous. Bought the phone with $800 they show me ads in search.

Slow. It got enabled on my Oppo find x3 lite automatically and I'm glad I could turn it off by uninstalling it because it's way slower than the old search. I dont want to want a second to be able see the app I searched for that is ON my phone.

As other reviews, disappointed with this on my oppo reno8 pro, it doesn't open the keyboard by default as previous versions did so you have to make a further click. Also doesn't seem to work with swipe keying which I use a lot. Can't find how to roll back/uninstall.

I am very dissatisfied with realme of this global search app. They consume more data. Please uninstalled this app for realme device and introduce step counter, exercise app in the place of global search.

when you search a app it just lets you open it, doesn't let you uninstall or do anything else, very annoying please fix this. The app takes long to load sometimes

Very poorly implemented... I want to go back to previous version ... Please provide me an option for that Very laggy .. inaccurate results.. and previous search page remains , every time I need to delete it in order to search for new keyword

Not Useful , Hangs the Entire Search Bar , Not Able to even search system apps properly. Gets Stuck every now and then.

It has replaced the app search feature on my Oppo find X2 lite. When launching, there is a delay which is frustrating. Also, it doesn't appear that while using this app I can uninstall the searched application, or move it to the "desktop" of my phone, meaning I need to search manually in the app drawer.

Worst thing added in the latest one plus update, earlier I could easily search apps based on name. But now can't even wheb I type "mail" it doesn't show gmail, instead shows diff apps to download. What are we living in 1900s?, where search only works if ur starting matches same? Ever heard of a thing called regex? start using it.

Horrible. Keeps last search and does not find anything except apps. Chinese spy software nothing else

no option to delete this unwanted app, I didn't installed it. This app collect lot's of personal information. This will lead me to opt from realme phone. They force to use apps.
